Machine learning Interview

REGARDING MACHINE LEARNING INTERVIEW

Do interviewers also ask the maths oriented or the implemented maths behind the particular algorithm or model.
In other words do they prefer asking the manual implementation the model using the coding only or with the help of machine learning libraries?

Hi Anubhav,

Please spend most of the time coding and yes, using libraries. Even if we have a firm grasp on the concept theory wise, coding is the most time consuming. But its the most important part you need to know in any CS related recruitment.
Wish you well for your interviews.

Thanks!

And what about maths oriented questions??

Hi Anubhav,

Yes, there is a fair amount of concept from Linear Algebra and Multi-Variate calculus.

Most of the concepts are covered in the Machine Learning Course which are required for a high level understanding of the key Algorithms and implementation.

From the interview viewpoint for Maths part, you have to spend sometime for intuitive understanding of the concepts so that if asked, you can explain it atleast whats the functionality of the concept and its significance.

I will try to post the questions I was asked in some ML interviews and then you can get a fair bit of idea what to expect.

Hope this post helps.

Thanks!
